Moore Achievements
-
Consultant Team engaged and strategy aligned to Client's objectives formulated within 3 months of Moore-DM appointment.
-
Early engagement with Local Planning Authority, Town Council and local Councillors ensured buy-in from key stakeholders to the strategy which was particularly important as there had been a planning refusal the previous year under a different team.
-
Time-sensitive survey and technical work undertaken to inform the design process and ensure programme was maintained.
-
Following an unexpected approach from an overseas buyer for an educational use, a sale was agreed with price reflective of its redevelopment potential, being a 20% premium to its Book Value.
Client Testimonial:
"We engaged David and his firm to manage the planning and disposal of a former international school that had been in my family’s ownership for 35 years. The entire process – from engaging a professional team, meeting the local planning authority and finally in negotiating a sale – ran very smoothly aided by David’s efficiency and grace regardless of the pressure. We are delighted with the outcome and the result that David and his team achieved for us and would not hesitate in recommending Moore Development Management to others. We certainly expect to engage David again in the future."
